Your best friend has a new girlfriend. Consequently he is not giving you the time he used. He doesn’t return your calls or texts. You understand that it is a new relationship and that he is consumed by this, however it’s not without pain for you.

Note your feelings in your journal.

1) State the problem

2) State how it makes you feel

3) Suggest a way forward

Minuit, ma chambre

Cher journal !

Mon meilleur ami a une nouvelle copine.

Il ne me téléphone pas. Il ne me envoie des texto.

(AT THIS POINT A COUPLE OF QUELS)

Quelle horreur ! Quel dommage ! (HOW TERRIBLE, WHAT A PITY)

Je suis triste. Je suis isolé.

Je parlerai avec lui demain. (I WILL TALK TO HIM TOMORROW)

Je lui expliquerai mes sentiments. ( I WILL EXPLAIN TO HIM MY FEELINGS)
